China’s Crude Oil Imports Surge
China is likely to have increased its crude oil imports this month, with the daily average at 7.8 million barrels, according to calculations by Kpler, as cited by Bloomberg. Refiners have been buying more Russian crude and have seen more tankers arrive from the Middle East, the report noted. The figure could add fuel to oil’s rally, as the July average would be a solid increase from the 6.2 million barrels daily that Chinese refiners imported in June. That was the lowest import rate for China...
Is Brent Oil’s Gap Lower a Bull Trap in Disguise?
TL;DR: Brent crude gapped sharply lower to $85.50 as US and Iran refrained from further strikes over the weekend, but shipping data from the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb shows the physical supply crisis is far from resolved - raising the risk that this selloff is a bull trap rather than a genuine reversal.

China’s Rare Earth Strategy Is Forcing a U.S. Manufacturing Revolution
Beijing is now desperately attempting to bring rare earth manufacturing back inside its own borders, exclusively. New Chinese export restrictions specifically target American plans to begin the country’s first commercial production of rare earth magnet materials by 2027. To counter that move, REalloys (NASDAQ: ALOY) is rebuilding every major stage of North America’s rare earth industry. Over the past two years, the company has assembled heavy rare earth feedstock, separation, metallization,...
Standard Chartered: Oil Markets Must Now Price Two Middle East Chokepoints

U.S. Jet Fuel Costs Soar as Iran War Hits Airlines Again
U.S. airlines are grappling with soaring jet fuel costs again after the return of hostilities in the Middle East shattered the three-week-long U.S.-Iran ‘deal to make a deal’ and sent Brent crude oil prices soaring past $100 per barrel again. The U.S. jet fuel market has been tightening since March, although there haven’t been concerns about any shortages in America, unlike in Europe, which in April was supposed to run out of stockpiles within six weeks. Europe didn’t see shortages, but the...
Argentina’s Oil Production Soars as Vaca Muerta Breaks New Records
Argentina’s massive shale oil and gas boom is going from strength to strength. The economically crisis-prone South American country yet again reported record monthly oil and natural gas production for May 2026. This couldn’t come at a better time for Argentina and South America. Rising global geopolitical risks, notably due to war in the Middle East, and domestic economic hazards hold the potential to derail the significant economic gains Argentina has made over the last two years. Ministry of...
Oil Market's Glut Narrative Just Blew Up
Less than a month ago, analysts were warning of a looming glut of crude oil as tanker traffic via the Strait of Hormuz began to recover amid a U.S.-Iran ceasefire. Within days of these warnings, the ceasefire was a painful memory, missiles were flying again, and now Yemen’s Houthis are striking tankers in the Red Sea, which makes two blocked oil chokepoints and a very real danger of a global recession. Brent crude this week topped $100 per barrel on reports that the Houthis had struck two Saudi...
Australia’s Clean Energy Boom Is Gathering Speed
Australia has big renewable energy ambitions and is well on its way to shifting dependence away from coal to cleaner alternatives. Having long depended on coal, the government now aims to establish a more diverse energy mix to ensure that Australia can be energy self-sufficient in the years to come, while supporting a green transition. This aim is being reflected by market forces, as energy companies invest heavily in a diverse range of energy sources. Australia is home to an extensive ageing...
